That’s what threw me off at first, the bottom is very nice. I think some grime and darkness in places, maybe even corrosion would give it some life. It looks too “new” you know? Almost like a 3d model. I think if you could make the raised portions more defined (with shadows via airbrushing, doesn’t need to be a physical change) it would make the helmet more defined. If you haven’t seen that one Mythbuster detail models, I highly recommend giving Adam Savage’s YouTube channel a watch!
